RCVD_IN_SORBS RBL (Hotmail)
When my NATed mail server does not have trusted networks set at all,
emails form hotmail sometimes get marked as in a rbl. In this example the
sending dial up machine is in:

* 0.1 RCVD_IN_SORBS RBL: SORBS: sender is listed in SORBS
* [A.B.C.D listed in dnsbl.sorbs.net]
* 2.5 RCVD_IN_DYNABLOCK RBL: Sent directly from dynamic IP address
* [A.B.C.D listed in dnsbl.sorbs.net]

Of course I applied the appropriate trusted network settings, and that
works great for DYNABLOCK, but for some reason the SORBS hit is unaffected?

Is there something different about the policy for this SORBS list?
